Learn From It, Don’t Live In It

Scripture
So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.
Romans 8:1 NLT
“So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus.” You shouldn’t feel shame or guilt when you belong to Jesus. Why do we still feel condemnation when we belong to Jesus? The verse teaches that we shouldn’t experience shame or guilt because we have a relationship with Jesus, who died, so we won’t have to suffer the emotion of condemnation.
We can live it out by having an intimate relationship with Jesus and understanding how much he loves us. Then, we will understand that because we can go to him and tell him everything, we shouldn’t feel condemnation. I silently suffer with shame every once in awhile because of repentant sins I’ve committed, it could’ve ended everything I had going on but I still have everything and more. I don’t have to feel condemnation, just learn from the sins and enjoy the blessings that God has given you.
